Right you are. As I mentioned last night, when I flew over the site yesterday there was still a lot of mud out there so the drop is not going to happen any time soon.
Is there no interest in finding out what happens when "meteorites" impact mud? Would not a "scientific" meteorite impact research program want to control for soil/salt viscosity? Besides, if the ground moisture content is high enough, the impact dynamics (i.e. the "splash" or "splat") might be spectacular. :-) Chris
